About the Item

The source of the rug comes from the book Tapis du Caucase – Rugs of the Caucasus, Ian Bennett & Aziz Bassoul, The Nicholas Sursock Museum, Beirut, Lebanon 2003, nr.24 and Oriental Rugs Volume 1 Caucasian, Ian Bennett, Oriental Textile Press, Aberdeen 1993, nr.68 and Caucasian Carpets, E. Gans-Reudin, Thames and Hudson, Switzerland 1986, pg.118. This is a famous, and ubiquitous, design of hooked polygons with crosses (called ‘Memling (Memlinc) gül‘) from the late 19th century, Kazak region, Caucasus area. It is often difficult to distinguish between rugs woven in the Kazak, Karabakh, Genje, and Moghan districts. Rugs with rows of stepped and hooked rectangles within octagons (the so-called “Memling gül” named after the 15th-century Flemish artist Hans Memling, in some of whose paintings such rugs are depicted) are often attributed without clear evidence to Moghan. As well as in many other Caucasian areas, pieces of this design were also woven in Anatolia, and it is generally assumed that the rugs which appear in Memling’s paintings, and those in the works of another 15th and 16th century Flemish and Italian painters, were probably Turkish rather than Caucasian. This theory, however, remains unproven. This is a medallion design with “Memling güls“. The “güls“, consisting of six stepped hooked octagons enclosing a rhombus bearing of large curved hooks in a cruciform arrangement, are a design typically found in rugs of the Moghan district. The design of this rug is interpreted and our designers choose vivid colors for this rug. Color summary: 10 colors in total, most used 4 colors are; Imperial Red 426 (Madder Root) Black Chocolate 434 (Pomegranate – Spurge – Madder Root) Green Blue 344 (Spurge – Madder Root – Indigo) Khaki 413 (Dyer’s Weed) Group: Caucasian Rugs Family Area: Kazak Material of Pile: Natural Dyed Hand-spun Wool Material Warp / Weft: Wool on Wool Structure: Symmetrical knot Knots Density: 36x29 Production Place: Southeastern Anatolia – Diyarbakir Stock Location: Tokyo Size (EU): 156 X 127cm Size (US): 5'1" X 4'2" Area (EU): 2m² Area (US): 21.3ft².

Ararat Rugs Fachralo Kazak Rug 19th Century Caucasus Revival Carpet Natural Dyed
By Ararat Rugs
Located in Tokyo, JP
This is another Kazak example of the Fachralo a town north of Lori-Pambak and just southwest of Bordjalou, from the late 19th century, Caucasus area. It has given its name to a number of usually small, boldly designed, and brilliantly colored Kazak rugs but, although this has proved a useful descriptive adjective in the rug trade, it is one used by experts on Caucasian weaving with caution. Modern research also favors the spelling of Fekhraly or Fachraly. Structurally, all the pieces are fairly similar. The foundation is all wool; the warp is usually ivory or ivory mixed with one or more shades of natural brown, and the wefts are one or more of various shades of orange-pink, pink or red. It is framed with a series of borders, the main of which is the typical Bordjalou style. The most appropriate colors to match the original is used for this rug. Color summary: 6 colors of total most used 4 colors are Charleston Green...
